To setup the <Link to={useBaseUrl("/docs/features/plugins/leak-canary")}>Leak Canary plugin</Link>, take the following steps:

1. Ensure that you have an explicit dependency in your application's `build.gradle` including the plugin dependency, such as is shown in the following snippet:

```groovy
dependencies {
  debugImplementation 'com.facebook.flipper:flipper-leakcanary2-plugin:0.147.1'
  debugImplementation 'com.squareup.leakcanary:leakcanary-android:2.8.1'
}
```

2. Update your the `onCreate` method in you `Application` to add the LeakCanary2 plugin to Flipper and the Flipper listener to LeakCanary:

```kt
import com.facebook.flipper.plugins.leakcanary2.FlipperLeakListener
import com.facebook.flipper.plugins.leakcanary2.LeakCanary2FlipperPlugin

...

  override fun onCreate() {
    super.onCreate()

    /*
    set the flipper listener in leak canary config
    */
    LeakCanary.config = LeakCanary.config.copy(
        onHeapAnalyzedListener = FlipperLeakListener()
    )

    SoLoader.init(this, false)

    if (BuildConfig.DEBUG && FlipperUtils.shouldEnableFlipper(this)) {
      val client = AndroidFlipperClient.getInstance(this)
      /*
      add leak canary plugin to flipper
      */
      client.addPlugin(LeakCanary2FlipperPlugin())
      client.start()
    }
  }
```
